In A TwinklingThis Three In One Skit deals with being ready to meet Jesus and refers to the core values of real Christians who choose compassion over judgment, love over tyranny, and integrity over compromise. This skit sets up a sermon on the "heart attitude" which identifies true believers.

Who's Gonna Know?This Three In One Skit illustrates the surprising integrity compromises that Christians sometimes make to simplify their workloads. It sets up a sermon on doing what we do "heartily, as unto the Lord," without compromising the ethics of the Christian life.

The Second Shepherd's PlayThe Second Shepherd's Play is the story of four shepherds who find that their comrade, Mak, is a sheep thief. They catch him in the act and are about to hang him, when suddenly the sky fills with angels who announce the birth of the Prince of Peace. How can they hang him now! Will they?

A Bird's Eye ViewThis Christian play explains the reasons behind God's mandate for sexual abstinence until marriage, and celebrates God's forgiveness of those who repent and turn away from sexual sin. It sets up a sermon on God's plan for sex, as it tells a compelling story through acting, music, and mime.

God, Look!This "dream play" speaks to every person's search for significance. It follows the adventures of a new Christian, "Lost" who becomes "Found," then learns from her "Teacher," the importance of helping one "Lost" person at a time, to become "Found." She stands in awe at the simplicity of God's high call to obedience and evangelism.

Cindy and the Godfather"Cindy" chooses the authentic love of "Prince Alarming" over the superficial attention of his twin, "Prince Charming" in this delightful Christian play that retells the story of Cinderella, with a Christian twist. Her authentic love is a testimony to one of the stepsisters, who opens her heart to God as well.

The Heart of GodThis "dream play" explains the reason for God becoming man in the form of Jesus Christ: to speak His truth to us Himself, and to take the punishment that was intended for us so that we may have fellowship with Him in eternity. In the simple story of a heart-broken little girl, searching for her lost hamsters, we see the "Heart of God."

Growing Ups and DownsThis surrealistic "dream play" creates a visual picture of "growing up," in a child's mind, by connecting good choices to stepping up the ladder and bad choices to sliding down it. It is an excellent tool to show children the results of their choices and makes a wonderful outreach into the public schools for youth groups.

The Last TrumpetThese four "Collected Skits" on the theme of being ready for Christ's "second coming," demonstrate the urgency of being ready to meet Jesus at any time, either because our life on earth ends, or because we hear His "Last Trumpet." Excellent for a sermon on "end-times" prophesy.

The Four Loves That Shape Our LivesThese four skits are on the theme of "The Four Loves That Shape Our Lives": "Eros," that ignites our passions; "Phileo," that urges us to develop like-minded loyalties; "Storge," that cements our family relationships, and God's "Agape" love, that provides the "light and salt" attitudes and behaviors which keep our three earthly relationships from spoiling.

Signs From GodThese four "Collected Skits" are on the theme of fruitful Christian living: stewardship, holiness, love, and hope. Together, these skits combine to show four areas of life that God intends to govern, as well as, bless when we submit and obey His commands. This is excellent for a sermon on the Christian life.

The Parable of The Sheep and The GoatsThis "Fractured Parable" presents a hilarious retelling of Jesus' parable of the "Sheep and the Goats." Jesus places such extreme importance on ministering to the needy that He puts Himself in the position of the one in need. When we minister to the needy, we ministry to Jesus himself.

The Parable of Lazareeta and The Rich WomanThis "Fractured Parable" presents a hilarious retelling of Jesus' parable of "Lazarus and the Rich Man," in which we are admonished to heed God's warnings to share our worldly goods with the poor. After death, we will be forever sorry that we did not obey the Lord and share our wealth.

The Parable of The Two BridesmaidsThis "Fractured Parable" presents a hilarious retelling of Jesus' parable of the "Wise and Foolish Virgins." The foolish bridesmaid fails to have her dress altered in time for the wedding and learns that there are no second chances to be ready to meet the bridegroom, Jesus.

The Parable of The Unmerciful ServantThis "Fractured Parable" emphasizes the importance of forgiving others, just as God has forgiven us through Christ. It is an excellent introduction for a message on the importance of showing mercy to one another and the result of harboring hatred.

The Parable of The Prodigal SonThis "Fractured Parable" is a testimony to God's faithfulness to forgive those who repent and return to Him with a pure heart. It sets up a message on the compassion of God and chastises those who decide that sinners should be shunned, as the "older brother" advises.

The Parable of The TalentsThis "Fractured Parable" emphasizes the importance of using our God-given resources to increase His kingdom. It is an excellent introduction for a message on stewardship and the rewards for using our gifts to their potential, or the punishment for squandering them.

The Parable of The Wise and Foolish BuildersThis "Fractured Parable" is a humorous depiction of Jesus' challenge to "build" our lives on the "rock" of God's Word. Those who do so are clearly compared to those whose lives crumble under the pressures of life because they chose to build their lives on the "sand" of worldly pleasures.

Do You Really Love Me?In this Christian Monologue Skit, a daughter pleads for unconditional love. A mother-daughter relationship is strained when mom finds that Amanda has been hiding an academic probation notice, which sets the stage for a sermon on parent-teen relationship and the secrets to honest communication.

One Choice, One NightmareChris chooses worldly pleasures over spiritual integrity and delivers this monologue after failing to wear the Armor of God. Six men shadow him, representing the parts of the Armor of God, setting up a sermon on the power of compromise to take over our Christian value system.

Construction ZoneIn this "Metaphor Skit," people uncoil and recoil to visually represent the broken relationships brought about by harsh words spoken from a prideful heart. Words can both build us up and tear us down depending on their intent.

Run To WinIn this "Metaphor Skit," Jeff is trying to run a race, but visitors who offer him drugs, alcohol, dirty magazines and bad company hinder him. Each one leaves a chain, representing a choice to give in to sin, until finally, Jeff drops in discouragement. A sermon on spiritual warfare follows.

Be Like Little ChildrenMaking our love relationships work through the power of God's agape love is the topic of this first skit in a series of four that follows the same cast from childhood to senior citizens. In the first skit, the "children" learn that God's love is an active, helping verb! (This skit can stand alone.)

The Salt of the EarthThis second skit of four expounds on the Four Loves, by explaining that God's "agape" love is a "salty" seasoning that prevents our earthly love relationships from spoiling. God's intends for us to enjoy healthy relationships under the sovereignty of God. (This skit can stand alone.)

The Power of Agape LoveThis third skit of four expounds on the "Four Loves" by portraying the quality of agape love practiced over a lifetime. The continuous cast has become senior citizens, and each one is more eager to help the other than to meet his own needs. (This skit can also stand alone.)

The Love ConnectionIn this final skit of the series, the "Four Loves" are compared to four contestants on a dating game show. "Agape" wins, but she cannot go alone. She must join with one of the other earthly loves, for any love relationship will become God's perfect love with "Agape." (This skit stands alone.)

Hard LaborYoung Bruce is aghast when his Uncle Buzz comes to visit. He is lazy, irresponsible, soaks his relatives for money, and is always looking for entertainment; other than that, he's quite a decent guy for a 40-year old man. This skit is an excellent set up for a youth sermon on responsibility.

His Will, My Will, How Will I Know?In this "Skermon" (skit/sermon) one young woman tells her friend to "hand" her life over to God. Each finger represents one area: thumb=location; forefinger=purpose; middle finger= occupation; ring finger=a mate; and pinkie=passions. The pastor interrupts half way through as the action freezes.

Have A Heart For The LostThis "Story Time Theater" provides a delightful retelling of the story of Jonah and the importance God places on sharing the Good News with people, even if we think they are not worthy. Two mimes and one story lady set up a sermon on salvation and bring out the child in every one.

The Bible, God's Book of DirectionsThis "Story Time Theater" provides a delightfully creative venue for stressing the importance of reading the "directions," Gods word, so we can conform to His ideal and not make a "mess" of our lives. Two mimes and one Story Lady set up a sermon on obedience and bring out the child in everyone.

Why Do Things Go Wrong?This "Story Time Theater" provides a delightfully creative venue to help people realize that our free will causes much of our pain, and God is not to blame for our troubles. Two mimes and one Story Lady set up a sermon on the results of our choices and bring out the child in every one.
